Conversion Rate Register

The contents of the conversion rate register determine the nominal rate at which
analog-to-digital conversions happen when the thermal sensing device is in auto-
convert mode.
and the conversion rate. As indicated in
to its default state of 02h (0.25 Hz nominally) when the thermal sensing device is
powered-up. There is a ±25% error tolerance between the conversion rate indicated in
the conversion rate register and the actual conversion rate.
